Icy Tower 2 (Free)
Whats it about? The sequel to the extremely popular jumping game Icy Tower is here, with new features and improvements.
Whats cool? Like other jumping games, Icy Tower 2 is the sort of endless title you can play to kill time.

Icy Tower 2 is also filled with tons of power-ups and includes stunts you can perform for extra points as you keep going up. All in all, there are quite a few features for an endless vertical scroller, which might be the reason the franchise is so popular.
